Hello all, first time poster and first time DSM owner. I have a 2g eclipse RS, and no I will not be scrapping or selling it to find a GST/X. Now that that's out of the way, I damaged a small aluminum part while drilling out my lock cylinder previously, and it finally failed fully and now my car is dead in the water. The part seemingly has no name, I've looked all over diagrams and exploded views for my car, and no luck. If anyone has one of these parts I will pay for the part and cover shipping! I'm also willing to pay extra for 1-2 spares seeing as how fragile these seem to be. See the attached photos for the part in question.
Thanks in advance! Anything is appreciated.

The '99 GS I pulled the part from has a steering lock mechanism, and it does not appear your RS is equipped this way. I don't think the part will work. Perhaps you'll have to get it from an RS. If I would have noticed before hand, I would have shipped you the whole assembly instead of drilling out the brass pins.

Was this maybe out of an automatic model? I know the ignition/steering wheel lock set up is different between auto and manual, and mine is manual. My RS also has a steering lock (which locked my wheel to the left on the highway before I decided to replace the part pictured). Regardless, thank you for your time and effort!
